SmartLine Non-Contact Radar Level Meter Technical Datasheet 34-VF-03-19 September 2009 Specification The Universal Radar Solution The SmartLine Non-Contact Radar Level Meter (FMCW) is for level measurement of liquids and can be used to calculate for volume assessment. SmartLine Non-Contact Radar Level Meters provide a more stable measurement than pulse radar and they are well suited for agitated process conditions. Highlights ±3 mm / ±0.04" standard accuracy Reliable measurement in difficult process conditions Operates up to a flange temperature of 200 C /(390 F) and 40 barg (580 psig) Measuring range up to 80 m (260 ft) Long antenna versions can be extended to suit nozzle length Drop antenna for corrosive liquids (with optional PTFE/PP flange plate) or where product build-up is likely Sealed drop antenna extension option for pressurized tanks Configuration software and HART DTMs included as standard Optional second current output Direct-accessible graphic touchscreen/wizard (option) Converter rotates 360 Triple barrier gas-tight protection available for working with dangerous gases (using pre-stressed fused glass) Industries Figure 1 SmartLine Non-Contact Radar Level Meter Chemicals Food & Beverage Iron, Steel & Metals Minerals & Mining Oil & Gas Petrochemicals Pulp & Paper Water & Wastewater Applications Tanks with agitators Process tanks Storage tanks 1.

Page 2 Applications 1. Level measurement of liquids in storage tanks SmartLine Non-Contact Radar can measure the level of a wide range of liquid products on a large variety of installations, including LPG and LNG tanks. It does not require calibration or commissioning when installed. It can measure any liquid within the stated pressure and temperature range, and distances up to 80 m / 260 ft 2. Level measurement of liquids in process tanks SmartLine Non-Contact Radar can measure level accurately in agitated conditions, such as near to vortexes caused by agitators, and also where foam is present. 3. Open channel metering or flow SmartLine Non-Contact Radar can measure level in an open channel and convert this measurement into flow values if the characteristics of the channel are known. This solution is the high end alternative to ultrasonic and hydrostatic pressure transmitters. For installation requirements and application needs please refer to the User manual. Please refer to the User manual for details of how and where to use these products.
Page 3 4. Measurement of corrosive liquids with a drop antenna If the tank is full of obstructions such as agitators and reinforcements, Honeywell recommends installing the SmartLine Non-Contact Radar in a bypass chamber or a stilling well. For installation requirements and application needs please refer to the User manual. Please refer to the User manual for details of how and where to use these products. 5. Measurement of liquids in a bypass chamber The drop antenna option combines a relatively small radar beam for more precise measurement and a shape that avoids product build-up. If the tank contains corrosive liquids such as acids and alkaline solutions, we recommend the DN 80 / 3 drop antenna with the PTFE or PP flange plate option
